Home » Capping » 4 Head (Four Head)
Four head cappers are designed to have four cap-tightening chucks integrated into a single machine. Four head cappers transfer containers from a conveyor onto the outer circumference of a rotating disc. The four chucks are positioned to contact the containers as they rotate around the circumference of the disc and apply and tighten caps to the containers. Once the container reaches the other side of the rotating disc, the container is discharged onto a takeaway conveyor. The four chucks on a four head capper allow the capper to have four containers in different stages of the capping operation at once.
